Marshall DSL40C

From Hendrix to Slash, Iron Maiden to Spinal Tap - if guitar royalty has one thing in common, it's that they all bow down to the majesty of Marshall guitar amplifiers.

As with the original DSL models, there are the usual presence, bass, middle and treble controls, but this time, instead of a deep switch adding an extra kick of bass to the power amp stage, you've got a resonance control, a popular feature on many high-gain amps.

Sonically, the DSL is as great as it's ever been, if not better - a keen reminder that Marshall has earned every one of those years at the top.
